A s'more or smore as it is sometimes spelt is a campfire treat which is particularly popular in the United States and Canada.
The s'more was created by Nathaniel Ayers and the phrase is believed to be contraction of the term "some more".
A typical s'more consists of a toasted marshmallow and a chocolate layer sandwiched between two Graham crackers which are traditionally made by combining wheat flour, wheat bran and wheat germ.
There are many derivatives of the s'more which, although they may contain the core ingredients mentioned above, are nevertheless served cold. A popular example is the Hershey's S'mores bar.
Incidentally, thank you Evan-Amos for placing the above image of a s'more in the public domain.
Here's a video of how to make a s'more in a microwave using a dedicated s'more machine:
The s'more has become such a popular treat that it has even been given its own special day of celebration. National S'mores Day is celebrated on the 10th of August.
